Chapter 792 Speacial Friend

　　Time- 14:07

　　Location- Sky Blossom City, Guild Association mall, Warehouse no.234

　　"You make no sense. What do you mean?" Aba spoke in disbelief.

　　"I said if it is your problem, why should I be the one making changes?" I repeated myself.

　　"I heard you the first time. I asked if you mean to say that you are not going to change the way you talk to me?" Aba spoke with more context this time. 

　　"My answer was simple, it is your problem why should I change? Why should I change the way I speak because of you?" I repeated myself the third time. 

　　"You jerk, my problem is that you talk differently to me when compared to your employees, if I am your friend you should stop talking to me as if you have a grudge against me. I want you to talk to me like you normally would to Susan or any other employee of yours." Aba explained herself once again. 

　　"Oh, you noticed it, huh, I normally speak this way to my special friends for example Corey, and then there is you." I justified myself. And noticed Agatha giving me a look of alarm. 

　　"You just told me you only have two friends." Aba pointed out. 

　　"Yes, I only have two friends but Corey is my special friend." Saying the word for the second time I heard the way 'special friend' sounded to the ears of a grown-up. So I turned to look at Agatha who was on guard ready to attack me as long as I so much as tried to touch Aba. So to assure her I said, "I heard myself the second time, don't worry I will not use that word again." 

　　"I am not worried about your words but your actions." Hearing my assurance, Agatha did not lower her guard against me instead she warned me not to make a single wrong move against Aba. otherwise, she cannot guarantee my life. 

　　"Whatever," I shook my head in dismay. 

　　"What is the difference between a special friend and a friend," Aba asked. Which caused Agatha to give me a look. Cautioned by her look I decided to give up messing with Aba, whose mind hadn't developed similar to her body, and replied, "Fine, I will change the way I talk to you, happy! If nothing else, I will take my leave, I have places to be." 

　　"Wait, Wyatt, tell me what is the difference between a friend and a special friend?" Aba asked again. 

　　"Ask Agatha, she will explain it to you, I am already late," I yelled threw the ball in Agatha's court, and exited the warehouse. Then I hurriedly summoned my Nanomorpher and escaped toward the TSR guild.

　　Date- 2 April 2321

　　Time- 14:35

　　Location- Sky Blossom City, TSR guild

　　"Boss, this way" Van and old Ben greeted me at the entrance and then they lead me towards where unconscious Ronnie was stowed. 

　　"Van, how far is the construction of the TSR guild headquarters on the barren lands of the dungeon highway coming?" I had asked Van to buy all the land next to the blood rock gate dungeon that sealed Bloodette and ordered him to construct a headquarter over there so that the dungeon seal doesn't get exposed and we access blood rule pills made by Bloodette efficiently. 

　　"Boss, I hired the best construction card apprentices in the city to build the new headquarters. By the end of the next week, it should be ready for an inauguration ceremony." Van answered to the best of his knowledge. 

　　"Boss, if you don't mind, I have something to ask of you," Old Ben asked cautiously. 

　　"Go ahead and ask away," I said. 

　　"Boss, After the new headquarters of the TSR guild, is built, I would like to use the old building as the new headquarters for the Tiger Squadron. Our present headquarters is almost half a decade old and we need an upgrade." Old Ben spoke of the needs of the Tiger squadron. 

　　"Captain Ben, I am sorry but we of the TSR guild do not plan to abandon the old building, it will still be in use but not as frequent as before." Van, shoot down old Ben's plan of upgrading the headquarters of the Tiger squadron even before it took off.

　　"Old Ben, you should have told me about this problem earlier. Here take these 1000 median soul jades, this should be enough budget for the Tiger squadron to upgrade their headquarters and get started on other stuff." I previously offered Old Ben to allot a budget to the tiger squadron but he refused and wanted to take care of it himself by selling his blood weapon cards. But that wasn't enough as the city lord had left the tiger squadron in a very dire state so that they would crumble to the pressure and accept a new captain other than old Ben, but the soldiers of the squadron held their ground and stayed true to their name, the tiger squadron. 

　　"Thank, you boss. I don't know how to repay your generosity." Old Ben thanked me.

　　"No problem, you and your men are my soldiers now. This is what I should do. And if you really want to repay me, earn more profits for me." I answered.

　　"Okay," Old Ben agreed with his expressionless face. 

　　"Boss, here." Van pointed to the bed where Ronnie lay unconscious. 

　　"Look at this lucky bastard sleeping soundly." Ronnie was indeed lucky, I was planning to cripple him after extracting his origin card using blood fate plunder on him but due to this asshole's luck Agatha and Aba were making a fuss about him being healthy and out of harm's way when in their custody. I tried lying to them but they were not sold on that and demanded to reinspect Ronnies health. And because of that lie, Agatha's interest in Ronnie had increased by another level so, I can not cripple this bastard and had no choice but to feed him a calamity daughter gem on a later date. 

　　"Tsk" I clicked my tongue looking at unconscious Ronnie and asked Van to awaken him
